HRGB_SWF003 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: HRGB_SWF - School Work Force Census

• Message number: 003

• Message text: Employment Type defaulted to &1 from T5GPBS_ALL entry

What causes this issue?

Employment Type is mandatory for all employees and all data modules that
are being extracted. There are 4 possible values;

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

1 Teacher in Regular Service
2 Agency/SA teachers in regular service
3 Teaching Assistants
4 Other support staff
An employee's employment type is derived from 3 possible levels of
contract information;
1) Snapshot Data (at census date); from the SWF Contract Details
infotype (3216)
2) Continual Assessment Data (in the previous 4 calendar months before
the census date); from the SWF Contract Details infotype (3216). If the
employee has multiple employment types then the "highest" is applied to
later modules.
3) Centrals are defaulted to '4'.
However, we realized quite early on in the development that this field
is very important so we have provided a default value in T5GPBS_ALL if
it cannot be derived from one of the three levels of contract
information above.

System Response

The employee's employment type could not be derived from the 3 possible
levels of contract information and instead was derived from the default
value in T5GPBS_ALL.
Data will be generated for this employee, but it may not be in an
acceptable format for the DCSF's COLLECT system.

How to fix this error?

Either you can choose to ignore this warning message
Or you can create a SWF Contract Details infotype (3216) record for this
employee.
The latter approach is preferable!
